    Comparing a Chinese person to a yellow animal isn’t racist! What’s next? Saying that comparing Obama to Curious George or Netanyahu to Splinter is racist?

    Political correctness gone mad I say!

      Nice sarcasm. We can have a conversation if you want.

      I was coming at it from the classic “squinty eyed caricature” that are typically associated with Chinese. Didn’t consider the yellow of whinnie the pooh so fair enough. But please continue being condescending.

        Exactly right my friend! Each race has exactly one (1) racist characteristic assigned to it. Xi-Pooh doesn’t have slanty eyes so not racist. Obama-Curious George wasn’t eating watermelon so not racist. Netanyahu-Splinter wasn’t holding a bag of gold so not racist.

          See that’s what I always saw it as, him just Streissanding himself. He has the likeness of pooh and the “yellow skin” is an unfortunate side effect.
